Little Elvis is going to be a soccer player

My lips have almost recovered, so now I have to find something new to focus on. And Little Elvis' kicks rank pretty high up there in my list of interesting experiences this week.

At first I wasn't sure if it was a kick. But they kept on happening repeatedly at around the same time and I didn't have to go to the bathroom when I felt them. I felt this was a good sign that it wasn't my intestines talking.

He seems to prefer my right side, although occasionally will go to town right around my pubic bone. He also seems to have a preference (or maybe it's a dislike) for hip hop. We were watching a movie that cut between both hip hop and jazz one night and whenever the hip hop song came on, he kicked up a storm!

I told my dad the other night and he thought that it was too early for me to feel kicking. He thinks it's something else, in which case I'm making poor Bob feel my intestines grumbling. This is very similar to the time I had him feel my bladder because I was convinced it was my uterus.

Have your babies started kicking? What do you think it feels like and when did you start feeling them?
